Chapter 28: An Outstanding Actress

Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio

Mr. Xing was suspicious of Xu Xiyan’s abilities. When they had contacted her, her data showed that she was a master of Wing Chun, kickboxing and Sanda. That was the reason they agreed to use her as the double.

Xu Xiyan understood that they were suspicious of her abilities, especially because of her overly feminine dress.

But she was already there; she wouldn’t take no for an answer. Xu Xiyan would do whatever it took to secure the role.

Without a second thought, she threw Mr. Xing over the table and pinned him down.

“So, am I capable enough to play the character?”

“Yes! Of course!” he said, shocked. “That’s more than enough!”

The throw had been so clean and precise, Mr. Xing didn’t even have time to react.

After Xu Xiyan let him go, Mr. Xing said, “fill in the form, and then go change your clothes.”

On the form, Xu Xiyan wrote Jing Xi under the “name” section.

That would be her stage name. The family name Jing was her mother’s. From that day onward, the entertainment industry would know her by that name: Jing Xi.

Free from the Xu family, she would represent herself from then on. Any success or failure would be of no concern to the Xu family, just as the glory or decline of the Xu family would be of no interest to her.

After completing the form, Xu Xiyan changed into the dark uniform of a policewoman.

Everything about her changed as she let go of every last bit of her strong, elegant aura.

The staff was stunned by her look, thinking why would an outstanding actress like her remain a mere double? What a pity!

In the scene where Xu Xiyan would be playing a double, the heroine would be chasing after a wanted fugitive. She would have to jump from an abandoned house onto the roof of a car, and then roll to the ground from there.

The director wanted the scene to be more impactful. So he had requested that the actress not equip herself with any safety wires. In light of the risk, the lead actress, Huang Yanran, proposed the idea of using a double instead.
